CE88 years.

It has been 14 years since Voyager left Earth and conducted a super-beam flight.

According to the time on Earth, Aslan should be about 32 years old at this time. However, due to the relativistic effect generated during superluminal flight, Aslan and others who arrived at Pompeii were only about 25 years old in appearance.

However, among them, there is another person who has grown old and has almost lost most of his ability to move, and can only sit in a wheelchair powerlessly.

"Mia. The weather is good today. Why don't we go out for a walk!"

As the curtains opened, the sunlight also scattered on the sheets as it passed through the windows.

However, the owner lying on the bed did not mean to get up.

Seeing this, Aslan sighed helplessly, then grabbed the quilt with both hands and pulled it hard.

"ah!!"

A scream of panic, frustration, and despair suddenly penetrated Aslan's ears.

However, Aslan did not get angry because of this. Instead, he leaned down more gently and gently hugged the owner of the bed in his arms.

"Okay OK. Mia, it's okay. It's okay. If you don't want to go out, let's stay in the house."

Aslan's voice was very gentle, as silently moistening as the warm spring breeze.

Gradually, Aslan felt the movement of the person in his arms.

“Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah.”

A hoarse, old, and painful voice sounded.

"Well. What's up? Mia." Aslan said softly with pity flashed in his eyes.

"I, I'm going out." The man in his arms moved, but his movements became more and more forceful.

Aslan nodded and gently let go of the person in his arms.

"Come on! I'll hold you!"

As Aslan moved, a figure with thin hair and eyebrows all removed, wrinkles on his face and teeth appeared in Aslan's arms.

this,

It's Mia Campbell.

A clone made using the genes of Lux Klein to satisfy Dylandal's ambitions.

A poor girl.

Knowing all this, Aslan was not frightened by Mia's current extremely terrifying appearance to ordinary people. Instead, she gently picked up Mia, who was only thirty kilograms, and gently placed it on a wheelchair aside. Finally, Aslan gently covered Mia with a blanket and put on a cotton hat.

After making all preparations, Aslan slowly pushed Mia out of the room and walked into a ground colonial station that had been opened up by everyone of the Voyager over the years.

The scenery along the way was very beautiful.

Different from the landscape of animals and plants on the earth, Aslan couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.

Because, he noticed that Mia, who was sitting in a wheelchair, seemed to have signs that she was more dynamic than before.

Gradually,

Aslan unconsciously pushed Mia to a cliff.

The scenery here is even more beautiful.

The endless horizon,

And, the wind-up green ocean below the cliff.

"Mia, is this beautiful here?" Aslan locked the handbrake of the wheelchair and squatted on Mia's right hand and asked with a smile.

Mia nodded, but Aslan knew that this was Mia's greatest effort.

With the collapse of the gene chain, Mia's situation is declining, and it is even time to disappear at any time.

Originally, Aslan wanted the Voyager to set sail immediately, return to Earth, and ask for help from Kruze.

but,

Just like 14 years ago, Mia still showed extreme resistance and even used her self-harm to force Aslan to give up her plan to send her back to Earth.

"I don't want to, I definitely don't want to go back to the place where I have nightmares all the time! I'm Mia Campbell!! I'm not Lux Klein!!!"

At that time, Mia's screams still echoed in Aslan's ears.

The tenderness and pity in Aslan's eyes will not disappear because of this, but will gradually deepen with the passage of time.

"Is Mia cold?"

Aslan gently pulled Mia's thin right hand and asked in pain.

Mia shook her head and her lips moved, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't make a sound.

Aslan saw Mia's appearance and wanted to tell Mia not to worry immediately, but Mia stopped her with her eyes.

"Ah, Aslan, say, say, say, say, say, say, say, say here."

Mia's breathing became more and more rapid, but she finally said something, saying something that Aslan understood.

"Is this here?" Aslan's eyes flashed with nostalgia and he nodded.

"This is Pompeii. This name was obtained by me, and the meaning is her, the planet of Alico Pompeii."

"Actually, from the beginning, we were able to find this planet suitable for human habitation because of the rose pendant left to me by Alice."

Mia nodded and opened her mouth.

Aslan knew that this was to let him continue to say it. In fact, these words had been heard many times since Mia followed Aslan to this planet. But Mia seemed to be unhappy with it, and she would pester Aslan whenever she had the chance.

"When I led my subordinates to land on this planet, I thought I would meet her, or find things related to her. But after several years of search, we can be sure that the civilization on this planet has disappeared. Even if it has the civilization of the earth, it may be even higher than the technological level."

"Finally, in a search, we found a last database of civilizations that still retained the planet's birthplace in a dense forest."

Speaking of this, Mia, who was still listening to Aslan quietly, suddenly said vigorously:

"Ah, Aslan, you..."

"What? Mia?" As soon as he saw Mia's struggling look, Aslan immediately took out a tube of sedative from behind the wheelchair and prepared to inject Mia into the way to relieve her pain.

However, Mia actually raised her right hand that could no longer be raised, grabbed Aslan's hand tightly, and shook her head.

"Mia!!" Aslan looked at Mia's face that was covered with wrinkles but suddenly became rosy, and suddenly realized something.

"No!! Ah, Aslan! Listen, listen to me!!" For some reason, Mia's voice seemed to be getting smoother and smoother, but she was still old and hoarse.

"Mia!!" Aslan found that he could not even break away from Mia's right hand, and was about to burst into tears.

Needless to say, Aslan also realized that Mia had reached the point of returning to her now.

"No! Aslan, listen to me." Mia shook her head, her long-clogged eyes were full of tenderness.

"Thank you! Aslan. Being able to know you and having you is the greatest happiness in my life. Even if I am just a clone who is not worthy of justice. I once hated Lax Klein and Dylandal, but without Lax Klein's genes and Dylandal's ambitions, I would not have been born in this world, and I would not have met you as Lax Klein."

"Mia! We still have a chance!! Don't!!" Aslan shook his head and was about to break away from Mia's right hand, but Mia let go himself.

So Aslan quickly pulled Mia's sleeve and prepared to inject her.

Mia let Aslan move and said to herself: "Aslan, I hate Lax Klein, but I don't envy her. Because I know she gave up on you and gave up on the best man in the world."

Mia said, while raising her left hand and gently rubbing Aslan's side face.

"Aslan, do you know? I am only jealous of one person, I am only jealous of her. Alico Pompeii. I have never seen her, but I know her position in your heart. In order to find her, you will never hesitate to leave the earth and come to this deserted star field, and come to this planet where civilization has disappeared."

When Mia was speaking, Aslan found that she could not find Mia's blood vessels. Her right hand, which was so thin that she had only skin and bones, had almost found any blood vessel that could provide injections of sedatives.

"Mia! Don't say it again! Don't say it again! Now, now we will return to the Voyager immediately!! Return to Earth immediately! OK? Be obedient!!" Aslan was completely panicked.

Although he had expected Mia's situation, when things came, he found that any preparation was useless. Even if he was a ZFAT elite who had been through many battles, the same was true.

"Don't cry! Aslan! It's my sin to let you cry so gentlely! If you do this, I will leave with peace of mind!" Mia's thin fingers gently wiped away Aslan's tears, and said with a smile:

"This is the last one, this is my last willful request! Aslan."

Aslan looked at Mia's smiley face that had become ugly, nodded vigorously and said, "You said! Mia! I will do whatever you say."

Mia smiled happily.

"Go! Aslan, go find her! Since you can't find it here, then go back to Earth and find that General He. Perhaps he will help you."

"Mia." Aslan nodded in surprise. Not for anything else, just for Mia's words to return to Earth.

finally,

Mia is willing to return to Earth.

So,

everything···

Mia seemed to see through Aslan's thoughts. She shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I won't go back. Pompeii is very good here. I'll stay here and wait for you to bring her back!"

"Aslan, before leaving, burn my body and scatter it in the sky of Pompeii so that I can see the spaceship landing after you brought her back..."

Just as Mia was about to finish her words,
To be continued...
